Rice paper rolls for Breakfast?

I was hungry this morning. Like ravenous hungry! So, I popped open the cabinets and began looking... I came up with rice paper wraps. If you are interested in seeing how they make rice paper, take a look at This !! It is so interesting!


I am not completely sure if they are E2L approved and I forgot to take pictures, so I had to sub some images off the internet, but they were very similar. Here is what I did.


Breakfast wraps
I took 2 softened rice paper wraps, I added cucumber, carrots sticks, jicama, bean sprouts and romaine lettuce that I julienned.
I wrapped it up and made a spicy dipping sauce of shoyu sauce, chili pepper paste and fresh jalapeno.

I wish I had taken pictures of my wraps as they were much prettier than these above. It was filling and made me happy!
I am working around the house today. I ran some laundry, done the dishes and worked in the pantry. Later Chris will be home and I am thinking of what to make for dinner....

Does anyone have any dinner suggestions??

Brandi,

Sounds like a yummy breakfast to me.

As for dinner you know we eat salad all the time. But what about gazpacho that is easy to make an E2L version of. Last night I made a bulgur salad with a lemon, cumin and garlic dressing and tons of fresh minced veggies. If I think of something else I will email you.

talk to you soon,
Ali

Hi there! I have grilled zucchini (courgette) and eggplant (aubergine) which I then cut into strips. Another good ingredient for rice paper rolls is those Japanese mushrooms that look like matchsticks (or any mushrooms, really.) Bon apetit.
